Here, we encourage the new generation! The Kiosques de la Relève are coming to the Jean-Talon, Atwater and Maisonneuve markets this summer! Ready-to-use kiosks that can be rented by the day, they welcome young farmers to allow them to market and promote their products. This initiative of the Montreal Public Markets responds to the needs of these young businesses by adapting to their reality. From June 2 to October 16, come and meet the next generation of Quebec farmers who are spending the summer at the markets!
Testimonials
“As a start-up company, we were not ready to make a permanent commitment to conventional kiosk spaces. Consequently, it was impossible for us to take advantage of the exceptional visibility offered by the Montreal public Markets. We are very happy and eager to participate this year in the Kiosques de la Relève to let you discover the flavours and textures of the fruits of our labor.” Sébastien D-Couture, Les champignons maraîchers
« Having access to a large public market so early in our development makes a huge difference. It is even more interesting for us because it allows us to test our capacity and logistics without the responsibility of being present 7 days a week. Because we have small, diversified farms, we don’t have enough production or resources to be at market all week. » Rémi Fournier, Au cœur du Pinacle
